In this part of the assignment, the objective was to design an installation that visually simulates acoustic dampening using a dynamic and adjustable model. Using Grasshopper, I created a rectangular grid of cylindrical elements suspended from the ceiling. I used the Rectangular Grid component to generate a grid of points, and the Cylinder component to place cylinders at these points. The height of each cylinder was dynamically adjusted based on its distance from an attractor point, which I defined using the Construct Point component. To create an undulating wave pattern, I applied a sine wave function to these distances, with the amplitude of the sine wave controlled by a Number Slider labeled "Amplitude". Additional sliders were used to adjust the grid dimensions (Extent X, Extent Y), the spacing between grid points (Size X, Size Y), and the coordinates of the attractor point (X coordinate, Y coordinate, Z coordinate). These parameters allowed for real-time adjustments, providing flexibility in exploring different visual effects.
